I’m on the way to the dealership this morning and my mind goes wondering off to the service girl I sometimes get that I am not thrilled with and hoping that I don’t get her and that I get the guy I normally do.
Before I get too far, my mind just stops and I hear in my head:
“I greet this day with Love in my heart.”
Everything stops for me right there. I didn’t get my read in this morning as I woke up late before my appointment, but I did bring my Og Mandino book with me.
The minute this phrase passed through my mind it was as if something changed. I didn’t want to even entertain the thought or think of the past experiences.
“I instantly felt different, I felt like I wasn’t sitting in the same situation and I wasn’t using the same thoughts or brain.”

I drove into the dealership with a smile on my face, and had to wait, though it ‘appeared’ that three people were standing around, I just figured they were wrapping up previous client information.
Wouldn’t you know…Ryan wasn’t even in the service area, and of course I got the individual who had crossed my mind prior.
Not only did she assist with the prior booked appointment, but she also updated all the information on my file that was actually two years outdated…and no one else had checked in over the span of 6-7 service appointments.
As I sat in the waiting area reflecting on the last ten fifteen minutes and how the entire turn of events happened, I thought about how differently it could have happened especially if I was in that different mindset.
I thought about the instant change in feeling, energy, and even thoughts with that instantaneous thought “I greet this day with love in my heart”, the spark, and rewiring.
We often hear that kids are the most influential and easiest to change, but we all really have all the power to change and rethink what we do and how we react to a situation.
I chose how I reacted this morning and the old me would not have done that. Without working on Me, and working through the Master Key Experience (MKE), there is quite a possibility that this morning would have gone VERY differently.
I was treated to an opening today and I walked through it. I chose to make my reaction one of Love. I chose to start my situation with Love.
“…I greet this day with love in my heart. Henceforth I love all mankind. From this moment all hate is let from my veins for I have not time to hate, only time to love…”
